Anderson .Paak feels bad for A$AP Rocky, not just because he thinks the rapper’s getting royally screwed by Sweden … but because he’s losing something priceless — time.
We got the “Bubblin” rapper out in NYC Tuesday, and he’s among the choir in the U.S. who are outraged that A$AP’s still sitting in a jail overseas … awaiting charges for his role in a fight that — according to video — he didn’t seem to start.
Anderson says he got angry just watching the video of the guy harassing and allegedly attacking Rocky’s crew … so he can’t imagine what it must have been like dealing with it.
A$AP’s still dealing with it too — 3 weeks later — and .Paak says that’s the true outrage of it all. We broke the story … Sweden might be on the hook to pay Rocky back millions if he’s found not guilty, but Anderson tells us that’s beside the point.
According to him … the travesty is A$AP’s missing out on valuable time with family and friends and losing experiences he’ll never get back.
As for whether A$AP’s plight has had any other effect on him … it definitely has … he’ll be very careful if he performs in Europe
